About this award
TDA Research, Inc., a small business specializing in advanced research and engineering services, was awarded a $1.2 million Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract by Naval Strategic Systems Programs on October 17, 2023, with an ultimate completion date of June 8, 2026. This Total Small Business set-aside contract is being performed in Golden, Colorado, and involves the development, testing, and validation of TDA's silicon boron nitride (SIBN) fibers for use in composite radome and aperture systems designed for hypersonic vehicle applications. The contract represents a continuation of TDA Research's substantial track record executing Small Business Innovation Research and Technology Transfer awards across multiple Department of Defense agencies, including the Office of Naval Research and Naval Sea Systems Command.
The effort is being supported by two major subcontractors: Raytheon Company's Air & Space Defense Systems Division and Kratos SRE, Inc., both of which bring specialized capabilities in advanced aerospace and defense technologies. Raytheon, a leading defense prime contractor, provides engineering and systems integration expertise for complex defense platforms, while Kratos SRE contributes materials characterization and high-temperature testing capabilities essential for validating materials performance in hypersonic vehicle environments. This subcontract structure leverages complementary technical expertise to advance SIBN fiber development for next-generation defense applications requiring materials capable of withstanding extreme thermal and mechanical conditions inherent to hypersonic flight regimes.
